Here's the post that got Mary Bowden, MD banned from LinkedIn.
"Ivermectin is safe. The LD50 (lethal dose) is the amount of a substance that kills 50% of test subjects and is a benchmark number used to determine how dangerous a medication is. The LD50 of ivermectin is 25mg/kg in a mouse. The dose used to treat Covid? 0.4mg/kg."
BreatheMD. Censored, defamed, retaliated against for advocating early RX. Treated 5500+patients with #COVID19. Suing FDA for interfering with DR-PT relationship
Sue, sue, SUE! Hope this is the first of millions of suits against FDA for blackballing doctors from prescribing ivermectin. That whole arm of government just needs to be amputated.
What's amazing is what she wrote in an incontrovertible fact. It's indisputable.
Her example is one of many that gives me hope as these people are *dumb*. If they were smart they would have banned her over some subjective statement that could be controversial or misinterpreted. And least then they could try and claim what she wrote was dangerous through some twisted interpretation. Instead they banned her for writing an objectively true and harmless statement they didn't like.
It's a mask off moment that has demonstrated they ultimate goal of all this suppressing speech. It woke about half the country up in the process. Had they been smarted people would still be asleep.
Thank you and be careful. Very, very careful. We know by now that reporting facts can be bad for the health of one's on-line accounts (among other things). Including and perhaps especially, evidence-based facts. :) (N.b. Let's laugh while we still can ... )
I appreciate Dr. Makary's study and his use of the word 'mockery,' but he still says the shot may be warranted for some high-risk people. This shot is not safe, or effective, and is not warranted for ANYONE, let alone someone who is "high risk!" Good grief.
Making way for more people in the nursing homes on waiting lists.
In the 70s Americans were bombarded by nursing homes and retirement center propaganda convincing grandma that she is a burden and should live in an old people’s enclave.

Generational living is important on so many levels, health of the elder being one among many. Generation supporting generation.
My comment when husb. first told me of this "disease" back in early 20. Also that it was Chinese bioweapon. Think I was wrong on that point, that it was DOD bioweapon (or just fakery to get death VAX shots into arms). How many actually factually did die in early '20?
I attended a local patriot group hosted talk last night given by a lady nutritionist who also had some hard science degrees attached to her name. The topic was vaccination. In this talk she refused to call covid vaccines vaccines, because they are not. She said up front that the injections were a bioweapon. So nice to here some refusing to enable 'their' lying language designation.
Makary has been on Limited Hangout duty since Day 1. I think he figured out that it would be lucrative to be just a little contrarian. That way all the cable news shows that wanted to get street cred for “balanced” reporting without pissing off their pharma overlords could wheel him out. I’d love to see how his income from the last few years compared to 2019. He’s a fraud in my book.
And right on cue, here’s Makary and Fox Biz saying “oh, NOW we know based on the Cochrane study that masks don’t work”. Wrong Marty, if you’d read the historical studies that were available at the start of this fiasco you’d have seen that it’s been known for 75 years that they are useless at best, dangerous at worst.
A diabetic friend took the shots and got pancreatic cancer after the 1st booster. She died. I miss her. Most of my local friends did not take the shot in small-town AL.
Like Rush, and most well known people , he was also convinced to take chemo instead of treating his cancer holistically. It tells me they truly are minions who are not clued into real medicine by their Khazarian mafia handlers. Same with celebs like Christina Applegate (OK, maybe not one of them ) and Angelina Jolie (definitely one of them) who have preemptive mastectomies. Remember Jimmy Carter's brain cancer? Many years ago, right.? Once he got back on the reservation, they obviously told him what to do to fix it. So real medicine is reserved for the top echelon only
Yes! My thought exactly as I read that stupid caveat they always have to throw in. How does it make sense to give something known to be ineffective and dangerous to already high risk people? Sounds like they just want to finish them off quicker.
we need to redefine high risk people. I propose those who still wear a mask, or wish they would be mandated again, and every who thinks the jabs should be mandated.
Matt Gaetz, undoubtedly, is outraged by McCarthy's dragging his feet over what should be a no brainer. Democrats live and breathe impeachment , knowing that if they throw enough of it against the wall, something is bound to stick sooner or later. Republicans can't even muster up an impeachment INQUIRY into what is blatantly obvious, the most corrupt administration in the history of our country. Go with your gut, Matt. We are counting on you. You, Trump, and precious few others are the firewall between democracy and full-blown totalitarianism.
I'm sorry but I don't place much hope in the "drip" scenario. There will never be any progress until there is accountability. For all the bluff and bluster in Congress, NO ONE has been held to account not even by Ron Johnson! I'm sorry but these Representatives, AGs and Governors have had the proof of blatant criminal actions in their hands for 2 years and they have never used them to hold anyone accountable by prosecuting them either in court or in Congressional hearings. They have had all the evidence they need to prosecute from Dr. David Martin and even I have forwarded this evidence to several AGs and Governors (including FL) and NOTHING has happened. Up to now, it has all been theater and I do not excuse it. The theater is intentional and all the politicians and AGs are cowards and bribe takers and cower before the likes of George Soros and company. Tell me I'm wrong.
We will get nothing but drip, drip, drip until so much time has past we forget what we are doing and in the end no one will ever be held accountable for the mass maiming and murder of millions of Americans and their children. Good God, we go to great pains to protect our children, everyone comes to a stop on the road when the school bus is unloading but we push toxins into their body that is going to sterilize them and shorten their lifespan by 20 to 50 percent and we don't bat an eyelash. The cognitive dissonance of the American mind must be bordering on complete insanity.
Bottom line, without accountability and prosecution, the cabal sociopaths and pedophile Marxist politicians who are behind this genocide WILL NOT STOP so don't even think this is anywhere close to being over.
Yeah, we all remember several Reps like Gowdy who start off sounding great and we all get a little bit of hope up. But they fall like a house of cards. It’d be interesting to know if they’re bought off or threatened. Maybe both.
Heard in a podcast the plan is after Trump is convicted on one of these bogus crimes (all of which carry the penalty of not being able to run for public office. Just a coincidence I'm sure) , the SoS of each swing states (all bolsheviks) will rule Trump cannot be on the ballot. QED.
Checked my super-duper conservative GOP Rep. Kevin Hern's website yesterday. Still nary a mention of the COVID-19 superscam, the predicament of J6 gulag prisoners, or impeachment.
He did want us to know he's all for the Military Industrial Complex "Defense" (what a putrid joke!) though
Also not mentioned on Rep. Hern's website was the $1.5M PPP "loan" that he received and was forgiven during the Scamdemic. (My two GOP Senators also had similar multi-hundred thousand dollar PPP loans forgiven.)
Dena, thank you for sharing this link. I feel so hopeless and helpless when it comes to the plight of J6 defendants but it's nice to have a way to help even if it isn't much. I get sick to my stomach every time I read one of these stories and just can't believe this is the country we live in now. Martyr Made summed up the situation well (language warning, but justified IMO):
The Congress of All Hat and No Cattle! The Congress of Appropriations by Debt. The Congress of No Borders! The Congress of No Jobs. The Congress of the Destroyed Republic! The Congress of the Destroyed Dollar. (add your own to the list)
I sent a certified propsed indictment to the AG here in the corrupted state of Mass, I heard crickets. All they do is talk, so when I see their lips moving I naturally assume they’re lying…..always!
I love your impassioned comment Phil, and agree. But I’ve wondered if our AG Ken Paxton was coming dangerously close to holding some accountable and that’s the reason they are trying to impeach him.
My thoughts also which means he is doing better than my FL AG. They can't allow anyone to punch a hole in their Leftist dam. Once a hole is made, the rush of the water through the hole will soon collapse the entire dam. If TX prosecutes, the FL AG and Gov will have to follow.
A corollary to this is Katie Lake. If she had won the AZ Governorship, she would have declared an invasion and closed off the AZ border with armed National Guard. This would have forced NM and TX to do the same. At that point, CA would take ALL the pressure of illegal immigration which would collapse the state. They could not allow this so they pulled out all the stops to keep her from winning the election. The election of Katie Hobbs is the most blatant, in you face election fraud on the same scale - maybe worse - as the election of O'Biden.
All that you point out MUST be prosecuted. What makes me truly furious though are the men and women who entered ‘The PEOPLE’S’ House on Jan 6. The ONLY person hurt was Ashley Babbit, shot and killed by a POLICEMAN for standing in line. The Capitol Police let people in. These American Citizens wandered through the People’s House, some even stayed between the tourist ropes - we SAW this on the tapes. It was NOT an insurrection OR a riot. They burned nothing. Someone maybe took Pelosi’s pen. And these poor souls have been in PRISON for over 2 years, and they have NOT been proven guilty! They are NOT receiving due process. forced to wear orange jumpsuits when they finally get a Court date to intimidate and humiliate them in front of their families. The televised Commission on Jan 6 was a Kangaroo Court. This is a DARK Stain on America, keeping Political Prisoners and NOW trying to put a past PRESIDENT in jail!!! Why? Because these power hungry DemocRat cowards want to win an election. Any dirty way they can.
Agree, drip, drip, drip… will never work – is only a distraction to keep the natives from becoming too restless. And, it is also important to realize that there will be no “accountability and [successful] prosecution[s]” until public officials, including those in Congress, can be held legally liable for violating their oaths of office (in strict compliance with US Constitution).
What can ordinary citizens do to help remedy this dire situation? Best chance of a successful fix is likely to be pressuring SCOTUS into to setting a precedent wrt to officeholders being legally accountable for oath violations. Which is already a case on SCOTUS Docket (Case # 22-1028) under Rule-11 ("imperative public importance … to require immediate determination" by SCOTUS).
By visiting https://loybrunson.com/, citizens can help pressure SCOTUS into acting on this case, by sending them a letter to this effect, takes only a few minutes of time and $2 (seems ripe for a multiplier). And of course people should then ask their family, their friends, members of their church, etc to do the same.
Mccarthy did what his real job was - delay and deflect for the uniparty of which the rinos are part of GOPe wing of it. He's a traitor too along with a majority in congress.
Maybe his strategy is “get as much evidence as possible before impeachment” whereas the democrats simply fabricate their evidence, hire the FBI as paid actors, plant evidence, use CIA resources to frame the accused, and prosecute as a means of political elimination.
Lord, how much "evidence" does he need. We have real world evidence piled mountain high for all to see. From here on out, my attitude is "I'll believe it when I see it."
How much more evidence could they possibly need? It is hard to fathom the level of corruption we witness every day with these zombie government agencies. How is such staggering and blatant fraud okay with Americans? Is complacency and ignorance able to choke out our freedoms without a fight?
“No two papers had the same answer and none of them were correct” - college professor on simple math problem implies two things:
1. The good news: no one copied off of anyone else, and
2. The bad news: a college freshman unable to calculate a simple subtraction formula is not a problem due to loss of education during Covid. They should have learned this in fourth grade. What’s wrong with our STEM education?
Find old traditional math books and teach you children math at home. Good luck finding good math books. The old ones are sent to the dump by the schools. Saxon Math is excellent.
The whole point of common core is to factor out the parent or any older mentor in the child’s life that might help him/her with math bc “we don’t do math the way you used to.” It’s absolutely intentional to make it impossible for kids to understand and to divide the generations.
Just spent some homework time with a common core math child entering fourth grade. It was painful. The process to multiply and divide is preposterous. Bright little one too. BTW, she has a presidential scholar certificate signed by none other than JRB. Is it declaring her queen of the pigs?
Singapore Math is good too. They used that at my son's classical school. He came from public school where he had been using Common Core and it was quite a rude awakening for him but he did get caught up.
They mandate that children work out problems in the least intuitive way possible, and will not give credit to children who work them out in whatever way they understand the best.
It's a setup for discouragement and failure.
It's being done with intent, when you go far enough up the food chain. At the lower levels, in the trenches, many teachers don't have the intellectual horsepower to unpack what is being done to the children. And they don't have the humility to admit this if you point it out.
It's an ugly and wicked a thing to do to the children now in school.
Tom, that makes sense. These "word problems" were so abstract and brain draining - that both my husband and son went from a decent homework session to beyond frustration - and what exactly was learned? I'll need to read up about common core as this is the first year that we are experiencing these strange non concrete math problems- I ask my son - did your teacher review this with you during the school day? And he replies no - oh and it's all on the chrome book --- more screen time!
That guy is behind everything. It wouldn't surprise me if he comes in my house and takes away single socks, leaving mismatches. Then he tangles up wire coat hangers and leaves them in my closet.
My mother pulled out a math book from the 1940’s to teach me because I didn’t learn from new math. I ended up in statistics because I love math. Look in thrift shops for a math book you understand to help.
I was in HS in the late 60's in CA and was being taught what was then the "new math". As if there is a newer way 2+2 adds up! I didn't do well. When I got into college, I took a course in applied math/business math. The light bulb came on. From that point on I was tutoring math to college veterans for money.
They want everything to be so complicated these days. Former teacher here. No one really needs to know and be tested on 9 different ways to subtract in 2nd grade. And I am not making that up! I would definitely Home School if I had small children now.
Exactly! We should not let them try and blame the sorry state of America's childrens education on Covid school closures. This dumbing down of children has been going on since the "new math" of the 80's and 90's. For the past 2-3 decades they have been herding the children that are not "college material" into colleges in order to 1) drive up the price of college through increase demand, 2) capture the minds of the youth and 3) put them in debt that they can never repay so they will be very willing to DEMAND the New World Order's Universal Basic Income, et al.
Yes, my dentist, almost 20 years ago told me that her daughter went to college and all her friends who were A students, on the principal's list, in NHS, etc, were flunking out of college. Then she told me they all switched majors to things like event planning and how the school had invented a bunch of new cake walk degrees to keep getting money from those kids and send them off with a diploma. which is why the college debt situation has gotten so bad in the last 2 decades.
Yep. I was a 4.0 GPA Honor Student in my East L.A. high school, was accepted to Pitzer College (Claremont, Ca.), and found myself woefully ill-prepared for the academic rigor I faced. Of course, I figured out “the game” and managed to achieve a 3.8 GPA upon graduation from Pitzer, still not knowing shit. I wish someone had sent me to a trade school! Thanks for nothing, Affirmative Action.
My older kids went in to college so "front loaded" with credits - thanks the the scam of AP courses - that they qualified as second semester sophomores. HOWEVER, my third child said, "Sure, I got 5s on all my APs but they did not prepare me for college level work." It's all pure money-making BS devised by College Board. (A happy ending for my son who is now studying for his actuarial exams, but that freshman year at an elite tech school just about broke him and he failed out. Came back home and did his year of "purgatory" at a community college and got his act together.)
I went to Catholic school in NY in the 60's. I guess they didn't have the money for the "new math" so I was fortunate to be trained with the regular math. (We recited those times tables - out loud - for weeks, along with "The Bible is he written word of God", again.)
"Jamesiffer is breaking out in monkeypox lesions at a rate of three per day. How many lesions will they / them have, two weeks after their second boostah?" The correct answer is "none" because the boostah is safe and effective, and Jamesiffer is / are ideologically pure.
This is the state they have mismanaged the world into.
Have you seen the trans teacher in Canada with the enormous prosthetic breasts...it is super sick. Imagine those poor kids having to keep a straight face whilst trying to learn.
I read a story that says he was trolling the school administrators on this because he was reprimanded for telling them he didn’t like their trans stance.
Sad that this is creeping into the homeschool curriculum in places. I have a relative who is very diligently homeschooling her kids. I helped out one day with some of the math lessons. I could not understand why the lesson was grouping every problem into "tens" and "ones" and generally taking up sheets of paper to do 20 problems. When I tried to show the "old" way of lining up the the numbers and figuring the columns from right to left, I was told "we don't do it that way."
On an interesting note, during a family get together, one of the kids invited us to join in an experiment. He handed out a timed multiplication test like the kind we took back in grade school: 100 problems in one minute. We had not done one of those since 6th/7th grade - a long, long time ago! Given the age range of the adults (50s/60s/70s), it had been between 40 and 65 years since any of us had taken one of these speed math tests! The experiment the youngster had designed was in three parts: 1st test - no music; 2nd test - classical music; 3rd test - hard rock music. Then he tallied up the scores for each round to see if we had improved, worsened, or stayed the same. His hypothesis was that we would do worse with the rock music and better with the classical. Wrong! For the most part, each of us did better with each successive test. This led to a fascinating discussion with the lad about what might the reason be that his experiment did not yield the results he expected.
I homeschooled both my boys through 12th grade based on a self-study approach using the curriculum I provided. Only the basic phonic skills and basic math skills learned in the early grades need a teacher to teach the student. After that, it was all self-study with supervision. All I had to do was check their work.
Saxon Math is the *ONLY* math curriculum to use! (I know a lot of ppl will argue.)
They finished Algebra 2 in 9th grade, Advanced Math (trig) in 10th grade, Calculus in 11th grade and The Mechanical Universe physics textbook I ordered from CalTech in 12th grade. All on a self-study basis (no way could I teach that stuff.) Also, there as no separate Geometry course. Geometry was incorporated throughout the math books.
When they enrolled in college, they took Advance Placement tests and tested out of every course they could. The college counselor told me that homeschooled students were always superior students and he never had to worry about them.n He also said their SAT scores were amazing. (I had them take the SAT test every year to document their educational progress.) After they went to college both my boys (they are seven years apart in age) told me they couldn't understand why their classmates were having such a hard time and complaining all the time. They said college was the same as what they did in homeschool. I told them it was because institutional schooling spoon-feeds the student and they never learn to study on their own which is what is required in college.
My educational paradigm was arithmetic, reading and writing, the three R's, in that order. The average school day lasted maybe 4 hours. My philosophy was geniuses are not born, they're made.
Bravo! Well done! I love hearing about home schooled kids well launched into adulthood, whether that means college, trade school, entrepreneurship, etc. A friend homeschooled her three daughters. They completed their studies by age 16 and went on to college, graduating by age 20- 2 became nurses, 1 a traveling nurse and 1 a flight nurse with a medevac company, and the 3rd became a PA, completing her studies AFTER becoming a paraplegic in a snowboarding accident.
Wow, I almost did that. When I was a college sophomore in Utah, I hit a tree snow skiing and fractured my hip. At the time, I thought I had broke my back. Recovered fine.
I didn't structure the home schooling all by myself. I had a lot of help in coming up with a model for home schooling. I went to home school conventions and listened to parents talking about their experience. I observed that a lot of parents had burn-out from home schooling. This was due to their attempt to reproduce the institutional classroom model as their model for their home school. Wrong model.
I came across Dr. Art Robinson of the Oregon Institute of Science and Medicine (OISM). Art and his wife were research scientists. He and his wife were home schooling, mostly his wife, their six young children. But his wife very suddenly died from a rare illness. In his desperation to figure out how to run his research institute and home school his children at the same time, he developed a self-teaching paradigm of home school and published his thoughts in the Institute's mailings which I subscribed to. He was in the midst of developing a curriculum based on his ideas which was not available yet. Saxon math was an important part of it.
I needed something now so I adopted his home schooling philosophy and started accumulating my own curriculum using a lot of the same materials he was going to incorporate. But the important part was the model he developed for homeschooling that allowed him to meet the needs of both his children and his career at the same time as a single parent of six (I think it was six).
That's just a long winded way of saying, if you are thinking of homeschooling, I recommend the Robinson Self-Teaching Curriculum. The basic 12 year curriculum is only $195. All you have to add are the the Saxon math books. Study his philosophy to get a good understanding of how it works and you should be on your way. After the first year of experiencing the program, the program becomes fairly automatic for the student. All you need to do is read the material on his web site to become familiar. Here's the links:
My oldest wanted a career that was completely portable so he became a programmer and now works in the "cloud". Is now the lead for Butcher Box keeping all their business in the cloud and works from his home on the side of the mountain above Chattanooga. My youngest got into the doctorate pharmacology program at UF straight out of community college just based on his test scores and now manages the specialty therapies division for a Chicago pharmaceutical company. He works from home in FL. When the company said he and his team had to get the vaxx, he told them to pack sand. He won that fight.
Sounds like a fun experiment. However, his results may have been different if he had you do hard rock music first. By the 3rd test, your minds were warmed up and like riding a bike, math was coming back from the vaults of your brain.
That was basically the conclusion the adults reached. We were incredibly rusty the first time through, but by the time we got to the 3rd run-through, we were warmed up and the "math muscle memory" had kicked in. With that in mind, if he wanted to "rig" the test results with a different group of people (a la Pfizer/Moderna clinical trials), all he would have to to is run the tests in this order: hard rock, silence, classical, and he would probably get the test results to "prove" his hypothesis.
With this "new" math the students spend so much time wasting the learning with boxes and circles and placements rather that take the time to practice content with 40 problems. With the "new" math the students are given 10 problems and 4 word problems. Students don't learn math by only doing 10 or less exercises.
Allowing calculators in the class room and to use during test. Not good. I wouldn’t let my kids use them at home. I have to say they were proud of the fact that they excelled at math. They got it. I believe parents need to be involved in their education by pushing them to be their best. I was ok with a B in a class with a very hard teacher... they learned more from her than one who gave out an easy A.
The fact that it is STEM education. They need to go back to what worked, back in the old days without all the new stuff and mumbo jumbo. No need to make it more complicated. There are many problems: One big one these days are they are having high-functioning autistic children in normal classrooms, which slows learning down by A LOT as they learn slower. But, I have always thought instead of teaching by 'age', they should teach by 'ability'. Some kids learn math faster than others, some read sooner than others. They should be learning by ability, not age. If they get stuck say on...division and fractions....they may have to stay behind a bit before moving on up, if you get what I'm saying. They'll catch up eventually and it will all even out or they will even ZOOM ahead of the average kiddo. But to do it by age and then make it taboo to stray from that average range, be it learning a bit slower or faster, is a big factor in what is wrong with our education system. That and all the nutjobs they seem to be hiring these days :P
Maybe we should go back to the McGuffey Readers and Ray's Arithmetic? Kids don't get passed on to the next level until they master the contents of the current one?
Yes, that is pure nonsense. People love a good scape goat that distracts from the real problems. And boy has COVID provided an excuse for all of society's ills (not that the reactions to it didn't exacerbate many of them).
Why were those kind of questions even on the test? It's absurd, and a good demonstration of the state of "higher" education.
I work farmers markets and part of what I do is: I have two scales. I have two customers at a time, all the time. One customer might have three bags--say, 5 lbs at $3.50/lb, 10 lbs at $1.30/lb, and 2.5 lbs at $7.00/lb. For six hours straight, I'm adding three prices, telling the customer the total, adding three other prices, telling the other customer the total, taking cash from the first customer and making change with zero thought, it's instant, that subtraction, then starting to add the new customer's totals, then taking the other customer's cash, making change, etc.
Plus be friendly and have little conversations, answer questions, etc.
Point of this is not to brag about how well I carry the ones but rather to add:
I've worked with a lot of high-school and college kids over the last 15 years of doing this, and exactly one had this ability. All the others need the phone calculator to add for them, to make change for them.
But I mean, to the world it's a nothing skill.
Nobody respects the basics anymore. If it's not electrified and glowing, it must be useless and boring.
I agree with the common core garbage and such but the disruption and forced online schooling did not help. My daughter started a private college prep high school in fall 2019. Her grades were mostly B and she was doing fine though had always struggled in math so we made sure she got extra help through the school. Then came 2020/2021 and the help evaporated and we couldn’t assist. By junior year when things were back to mostly normal, I called for a conference when she was failing math by the beginning of October. The teacher told me the ENTIRE CLASS was failing. They had to go back a rearrange the syllabus to reteach the lessons from the prior (online) year. Between this and a lot of expensive tutoring, we finally got her back to a B by the time she applied to college but there were a lot of struggles for kids due to the ridiculously long online period.
And although you were formerly alienated and hostile in mind, engaged in evil deeds, yet He has now reconciled you in His fleshly body through death, in order to present you before Him holy and blameless and beyond reproach— if indeed you continue in the faith firmly established and steadfast, and not moved away from the hope of the gospel that you have heard, which was proclaimed in all creation under heaven, and of which I, Paul, was made a minister.
Regarding the math entry, the education establishment is just using COVID as an excuse. Of course we know it negatively affected students in major ways, but these are COLLEGE LEVEL students who would have been in HIGH SCHOOL during COVID disruptions. And these kids can't do BASIC math that my elementary aged children can do. This is a systemic failure in math education, likely stemming from the disastrous Common Core standards and/or the ridiculous idea that precision and mastery of math is somehow racist. What they have done (probably intentionally) is rob an entire generation of kids of basic logic, which is established in part by sound math instruction. Just like they robbed a generation of cursive writing, which is a brain building activity. And like they robbed a generation of literacy with "whole language" learning. Their "innovations" in school curriculum have made now multiple generations DUMBER. Don't let them off the hook by letting them cry COVID. This is 100% a result of their idiotic policies and choices.
They want idiots because idiots will comply. They want those who care not capable of independent thought or reasoning because they will likely see through the b.s. and fight back. They want morons who cut off their sex organs so they can't reproduce because of 'saving the planet' b.s. In short, they want slaves to the system and that's what they are getting.
Yes, and apparently it is working, look at what happened the last 3 years. If I had had a college aged student in 2020, 2021 or 2022, I wouldn't have sent them to college to be locked in their dorm rooms or forced to take jabs or wear a mask. I would've told them to go get a job until the nonsense blows over. I wouldn't have sent my kids to any school to be masked. If we hadn't already been homeschooling, we would've started asap.
Yes, all this! The Prussian model of education is doing just what it was intended to do – create mindless workers who follow orders. I think this single change (adopting the Prussian model in education), which happened in the mid-1800s, could possibly be the source of the destruction of our republic. So many problems have flowed from this single change in education.
I have come to understand the phrase "sons of disobedience."
Also: "You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father's desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a liar and the father of lies."
I remember a meme not so long ago. Some act of depravity would be depicted, and the caption was, "Y'all need Jesus."
It became a meme so that it would be mocked when it became obviously true.
Just like "Antivaxxer" searches on google peaked massively in the summer of 2019.
Just like "Christian Nationalism" has become an epithet.
These things are not accidents. We are dealing with principalities.
And so, if I say "These people need Jesus," many will have that mocking meme in their subconscious.
But greater is He who is in me than he who is in the world.
That was my first thought -- these kids should have learned about negative numbers long before covid was a gleam in Bill Gates's eye. The other thought was that these were apparently STEM students, the future builders of bridges and airplanes.
In one century we went from teaching Latin and Greek in high school to offering remedial English in college.
Made my husband laugh when I said I could do the ‘-6-8’ problem without Excel. How can there be 20-30 different answers (assuming the number of students in a class) to that question? Sad.
I blame Common Core. They took standard old fashioned math and made it ridiculous and more difficult. Nieces were great at math until common core and then had trouble.
There are already excellent homeschool virtual math courses. Maybe the schools should start investing. Heck they'd be better off just watching Khan Academy than getting math ed in public schools and Khan is free, I think.
Yes. This is the result of Common Core Math. I tutored elementary school students through this time period and it was so difficult for them. They had to be able to do a math problem several different ways and the last thing they learned was a traditional algorithm. By this time they were completely confused and didn’t spend enough time with it to become a rote memory skill.
People react to the word "memorization" like you just said "Hitler was a righteous dude" or something. It gets such a bad rap, which is surprising because at the same time, athletes--who muscle-memorize things--are so revered. Really no substitute for it, in many instances. BASIC MATH being one of them.
You nailed all of it! It’s absolutely why parents need school choice or homeschooling. There is an educational philosophy that works! Find it for your kids and DO IT!
Insane Woke policies create a 'country' which cannot compete in the world market. This contributes to the high probability that America will fail ... as it already is doing.
Hi Angela !!! And you said a whole mouth ... and yes, destroy us equals warring upon us. And what does that make 'them'? Maybe the enemy? The implications are thus:
1) Our enemies have captured our governments. In doing so they have made us alien, the stranger in the land which our forebears conquered. In short, A DISPOSSESSED PEOPLE with no land to call our place of habitation.
2) Those who pretend to be OUR representatives but have done nothing to preserve our lives and property, what should we think of them? Such should be ridiculed and despised by us ... and be accorded no credibility whatsoever. They are effectually nothing more than enablers of the Evil which tears at us. Enough is enough. We are at the end of our rope. No More!
3) We must refuse to participate in their Evil and in their multiple and serial perpetration of criminal acts. We must not comply. We must resist.
4) We must demand the return of what is ours, our lives, our property including government, that of the family, the Church and the government of the civil magistrate, as ordained by God.
We have to stop them. Otherwise they will kill us all ... one way or another.
Covid just made it worse. That was also one of their idiotic policies and choices. But I agree, the dumbing down and low standards started a long time ago 😕
SF...who cares? The new piranha virus...who cares? Burning man now snorkel man...who cares? I think we have had enough "burnings" in this country for quite a while.
We know for a 110% fact that all mRNA concoctions have never been thoroughly tested in long term trials which is standard (7-12 years) for vaccines. However, even the standard vaccine trials are faked and not very proficient (see the book "Turtles All The way Down").
See, i think there is data pre-2019 about the mRNA jobs that give just enough lethality and injury while masking as a credible "vaxx". It is BioWeapon II in the culling plan. I don't give anyone a pass on Warped and Speedy, hustle the global Vaxxes out in billions of doses in less than a year. Not tested thoroughly for safety and efficacy for a reason...that wasn't the purpose of the poison; tested enough for a legit cover and decent amount of harm (not too lethal nor too quickly harmful) then sell a bunch of phony dose placebo to look like a tireless production rate being sent out to "save" millions of lives while further diluting and concealing the targeted death Vaxx distribution and PRESTO! a New World Order can emerge. Various independent inquiry boards need to be set up (SHOULD HAVE BEEN a year or 2 back) to snap up all the variety of various lots of the Vaxx doses to test and analyze them for salinity and all the other ingredients and quackery used in the Witches' Brews that were deployed upon humanity; Was SinoVax used in Indonesia anything but water? maybe a few heavy metals sprinkled in like much of the foods and medicines produced in China for export? Astra Sickenya compared to J&J let's get a better look at the toxic snake oils that were and STILL are being offered
I see a real turning in her. Just like me--a complete reversal of what I believed to be true. I basically took to my bed for a bit when it all hit me and sought God. She is doing the same --understanding the “something else out there in the spiritual world “. God. And the deceitful one stalking amongst us. I have been where she is and she has a voice.
She even wrote in her Substack about attending a Trump speech and it was very positive. She ended by saying that she believes he truly loves his country.
I read that post. It was remarkable. I’m heading that direction myself. I just worry about the total deranged hate on the left. They are chaos. The left promotes a myth. Like they always do.
I think she feels that her money and time are best spent exposing the lies from Pfizer and the government. She feels that the shot is a bioweapon that is meant to depopulate. I heard her speak at Hillsdale, and she's great.
She's a lot further along than you would believe or is rationally expected from a liberal starting where she was pre covid. But I've been along with her for the transformation.
She's been impacted physically and emotionally by events that have lead her to lean more and more conservative and always bodily freedom.
She was in her house when see someone broke in, which lead to learning to shoot a gun and knowing where it is. She wrote about that opening her eyes to why law abiding citizens would NEED a gun.
She's viewed the covid jabs always from a woman's rights point of view, which compelled her to search for danger to child bearing aged and pregnant woman, leading to uncovering of the massive destruction to them.
And each step of the way, she understands the medical freedom POV more and professes regret at her treatment of us and conservatives.
She wrote a Substack post apologizing for her behavior, not o ly asking for forgiveness but clearly explaining why she knows her actions and words were wrong. Not "could have been taken wrong." Wrong.
Everything we have all said we wanted from anti vaxxers and those that actually attacked us, she has done despite never publicly attacking any of us.
And look at what her focus has done? Her team of hundreds of expert volunteers organized with Bannon's help discovered and published 90% of the facts in that WSJ article TWO YEARS AGO.
We all owe HER an apology for continuing to doubt her. I'm as conservative as anyone. I want Nuremberg 2.0 and public hangings. Naomi just wants accountability and a halt of the harms.
So, arguably, she's a better person than I am in all this.
She is your very valuable ally. I'd bet my 60+ year conservative life on it.
I agree. She is now passionately opposing the vax. I have had my mind changed a time or two, three, four.....as more facts emerge so. Yes. I believe she has changed.
She called it a genocide before doing so was cool. Or even possible. She has walked the walk publicly and sharing thoughts that most of us hope we'd have the courage to take if we found out we'd been foolish or fooled. We should admire her poise and humility through that journey. I know I do.
I think her posts are very observant and thought provoking. I am intrigued by so many from the left moving to the left, or refusing to move left anymore. I enjoy what Dr. Wolf writes even if I don’t fully support all of it. Well, truthfully, I do concur with most. She just needs to see the light regarding the climate control agenda.
I think that will come. It took me awhile. I was so puzzled at the behavior of my church during Covid. One of the posts where she acknowledged the spiritual true evil and was probably seeing an entity behind it and her commenters fleshing that out was a relief to me. Confirmed to me what was behind all this. I was galvanized and moved from the left.
4/28/21 Pfz acquired Amplyx Pharmaceuticals … therapies for debilitating and life-threatening diseases that affect people with compromised immune systems.
And 12/21/21 Arena Pharm for pulmonary arterial hypertension and inflammatory indications.
Seems like compromised is a great descriptive for just about everything from our immune systems to big gov, pharma, air, water, food, land, education. In fact today our air quality is Uber compromised supposedly due to fires in Canada. So I guess that smoke ? Is probably compromising my ability to safely prune the shrubs, take the dog for a walk, water the flowers, talk to the neighbors, and on and on. So what’s in that smoke ? Anybody have any ideas? Anything compromising?
In order for them to purchase a company there are months of due diligence and negotiations.
So, they knew and planned their cash-in on the damaging but protected jab elixir in 2020, before it was even released on the first responder guinea pigs who were jabbed in late 2020.
It's the response to the pandemic, not the pandemic, that has lowered students' ability to do math, or likely anything else at this point. And a lot of that blame goes to the teachers unions; which in the end, are elected by the teachers.
I agree that the pandemic has hurt students, but, I'm sorry, the math those university (pre calculus & calculus!) students couldn't do *should* have been taught and learned pre Covid! Adding & subtracting negative numbers & adding fractions is *not* upper high school math! (Is it? 😬 Maybe I am old...)
I laughed when I read the blame game onthat one. No, this is another example of affirmative action not based on skin color. These kids are imbeciles, and should be working at Starbucks. If they could figure change.
By now it should be perfectly clear that to put your young child into the state (public) indoctrination (school) system is to intentionally ruin your child's ability to think rationally and to ruin his/her emotional development. There are no more excuses.
The dummies-in-freshman-class problem has roots much deeper than the plandemic and the shutdowns. Likely a majority of the current frosh crop are products of government schools, where disciplined and effective education has been absent for two to three decades.
Yep. This is NOT NEW. Colleges were offering remedial classes in math and English (probably others) back in the '80's (probably earlier). I tutored them. HOW they got into college? Later I tutored a freshman in college whose parent was my boss. An honors student in HS who had no fundamental understanding of algebra. Actually fractions were problematic. She wanted to be a doctor. Such delusion.
Yup. And all those hippies from the 60ss and 70s that fell under the spell of Marcuse, Freire and Giroux have been "the establishment" and running (ruining) our educational system for 60 years.
I'm not sure the scamdemic had as much to do with students not learning a darn thing as a curriculum that is more concerned with DIE (DEI) and what bathroom to pee in. Oh, and math is "too white", according to some of these lunatics.
Yep!!!! The powers at be so not want our children to be independent thinkers, people who can problem solve as well as be productive adults. They want everyone to be in the government dole..... supporting their communistic ideals. And thus accomplishing the ultimate goal of destroying our national sovereignty, eating bugs, and not owning one single thing!!!! Pure evil!
Since the pandemic is responsible for poor Math skills, the pandemic must have started at least 50 years ago. Twenty years ago, I was a Math Instructor in a two-year college and one of the courses I taught was Basic Math (aka Arithmetic). Going against the prevaling fad, I would not allow the use of calculators. One day, a student, a woman in her forties, breathlessly said to me, "You won't believe what happened last night! I balanced my checkbook and then said to myself 'where's my calculator?' And do you know what? When I checked my balance, it was right"! What happened 50 years ago, in the 1970's ? New Math! That's the real pandemic: relying on so-called experts to solve non-existing problems and ending up with disasters
They taught "new math" in my elementary in CA. I moved to Florida and took a placement test. They probably thought I was mentally retarded. With the help of a tutor and a good math teacher I caught up and excelled. Real math skills. Later in college (back in CA) I tutored students students who were not taught math. I understood how it can happen.
People now IRL cannot make change without the aid of a cash register. Even with a calculator some cannot sort how to deal with someone who (for ex) adds 3 pennies to a 12.03 to get bills and no coins for change. I used to try to help the cashiers understand. Now I just tell them the answer.
POS programs at retail registers will tell you exactly how much change to give once you put in the amount the customer has given you. No need for anyone to think anymore! lol.
(cashier enters $50 to the register not paying attention to the fact customer is fishing through her purse)
Customer: Oh I have 3 cents!
Stunned, whole body paralysis ensues. Double paralysis if the customer also cannot sort it. Triple if the lady with all her groceries already on the belt cannot do some figrin.
Hahaha--I do that all the time when I work farmers markets. Say the total is 10.55, a person will be pulling out his cash, maybe hand me a twenty, and I, seeing the bills in his hand or wallet, will say "Want to give me twenty-one?"
That inevitably gets a few eye-blinks.
Then I tried to pay that way at Home Depot the other day and the cashier was all, "Did you want to give me this much money?" LOL. "Yes, yes I did." Just enter that amount into your magic register and be amazed!
Our store hired an idiot for a cashier. She count not count to save her life. A customer had 37 cents in change and just sat there staring at the drawer. She honestly could not figure it out and finally started counting out nickels, which she got the amount wrong anyhow and I had to correct her. The school system she graduated from wants a levy. I plan to tell them, at a public meeting, that I will never vote for more money because some idiot in their school system gave that idiot a high school diploma. Can't count to 37 and can graduate. Got it.
Also tell them about the masked woman at the register at Home Goods who gave back change for $200 and change when her customer gave her a $20 and change. When shocked customer said "You see the problem here, right? as she held her hand with all that cash out before the cashier. She didn't see it (I assume judging by the scrunched face like I had administered a pop quiz). So I told her what happened. She was SH*TLESS.
And you cannot even say "DUH" anymore. But that school board should make it a new rule for the school year that any stupidity children notice in teachers must be responded to with "DUH!"
Ask them "If the bill is $12.57 and the customer gives you $15.02, what change do your give the customer?" Those that graduated from that school system and could not answer correctly should pivot. They cannot be trusted with more money. The teachers cannot be trusted with more money and the students deserve an education where the lowest bar is below change making. It is a transaction skill all humans in a barely modern society need. Priority shift cost ZERO dollars.
New Math! I remember it well. They threw terms like “associative principle” at third graders. I think that might have been addition...at any rate, I was completely at sea. My engineer father said it was hogwash, and tried to teach me basic arithmetic but then I’d go to school and be faced with another term that didn’t make sense to me. So, I avoided math as much as possible and focused on English and history. The math instruction was so poor - this was in the mid-late 60s - that I never really grasped percentages until I was working a part-time job when I was 19 and had to calculate sales commissions. I wasn’t going to be a mathematician anyway no matter how good the instruction but my “education” really didn’t do me any favors in this area. I can’t have been the only student this happened to. Now that I’m thinking of it, the “less than” and “greater than” symbols < and > were explained so confusingly I didn’t know what on earth they wanted after the lesson. Figured this simple calculation out on my own. My parents should have gotten a refund on the property taxes they paid for the schools. By the way, I was in what was considered one of the best school districts in Minnesota.
Not only did they throw all that hogwash at the third graders, they threw it at the third grade teachers too. When one school district was implementing a major change in the Math curriculum, they scheduled a day-long teaching training session. That session was cancelled because of a hurricane and never recheduled. More hogwash..
So good!! It feels encouraging to go from a drip to a trickle. Thank you for bringing your best everyday. A little encouragement goes a long way. Make it a great day!
Jeff asks, "Honestly, who is taking boosters at this point?"
I'll tell you who...every commenter on the article the NYT ran the other day, recommending, of course, the covid booster AND the new RSV vaccine AND the flu shot. The article flat-out said that no one knows the long-term effects of the RSV vaccine, but that doctors would be looking for adverse reactions as the vaccine is rolled out to millions of people, or something like that. And many commenters mentioned that they've had 3 or 4 covid jabs and still got covid....but they're anxious to get jabbed again ASAP....to avoid getting sick again. We are living in madness. The horror! The horror!
Most of the jabbed are the “vote blue no matter who” crowd. Let them jab as many times as they want. For one, many won’t be reproducing. Also, the side effects just might come back to bite them come election time in 2024 or 2028. Jab away liberals!!
Many fellow oldsters are lining up here. I’m sick of this. The utter ignorance. I don’t know how long I can hold my tongue. Sooner or later the ignorance will drive me away with a parting shot and I won’t care one way or another what happens to them. They have made their coffin with the finest satin, of course.
I learned long ago not to venture into the NYT, WaPo, or Guardian comment sections. The majority of commenters appear to share a similar demographic and a rabid belief in a specific value system. Like you, on the topic of Covid I found myself dismayed at the popular unquestioning acceptance of the narrative and the venom displayed against anyone who dare challenge their core beliefs. Sadly, I still believe that these people represent a significant number of people in our society. As you stated, these will be the people lining up for their Fall Covid/Flu/RSV shots.
If basic math can’t be done at the college level… a simple subtract 8 from -4…. Then it wasn’t the “pandemic” and two week (2 year) shutdown that is the problem. This problem is a complete failure of the education system in govt schools. My son learned how to do that basic math in grade school! If a college student can’t do THAT math then the lockdown when that student was in high school didn’t cause this problem. The inability to do basic math was already there. And the indoctrination system kept pushing that student upward and onward to complete failure heading into college. 🤦🏼♀️
Apart from the great issues raised today and otherwise, here's something that crossed my desk this morning... worth a laugh as a dangerous example of rank self-delusion - maybe it can find some exposure in your World News and Commentary - maybe under politics? ! :
HARVARD T.H. CHAN SCHOOL OF PUBLIC HEALTH
Leadership Through Crisis: A Conversation With Former Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot
1 p.m. Thursday, online and in person.
This interview should be a fulfilling experience - certain there's lots to learn about leadership.
The word “leadership” is not appropriate in describing Lori Lightfoot’s disastrous tenure. Unfortunately her successor is proving to be even worse. Way to go Chicagoans!
Here's the post that got Mary Bowden, MD banned from LinkedIn.
"Ivermectin is safe. The LD50 (lethal dose) is the amount of a substance that kills 50% of test subjects and is a benchmark number used to determine how dangerous a medication is. The LD50 of ivermectin is 25mg/kg in a mouse. The dose used to treat Covid? 0.4mg/kg."
thread:
https://twitter.com/MdBreathe/status/1699181708174577756
note: here's her bio.
BreatheMD. Censored, defamed, retaliated against for advocating early RX. Treated 5500+patients with #COVID19. Suing FDA for interfering with DR-PT relationship
Sue, sue, SUE! Hope this is the first of millions of suits against FDA for blackballing doctors from prescribing ivermectin. That whole arm of government just needs to be amputated.
She’s a hero!
Now this woman, maybe she's worth looking into for a multiplier, if she needs it.
What's amazing is what she wrote in an incontrovertible fact. It's indisputable.
Her example is one of many that gives me hope as these people are *dumb*. If they were smart they would have banned her over some subjective statement that could be controversial or misinterpreted. And least then they could try and claim what she wrote was dangerous through some twisted interpretation. Instead they banned her for writing an objectively true and harmless statement they didn't like.
It's a mask off moment that has demonstrated they ultimate goal of all this suppressing speech. It woke about half the country up in the process. Had they been smarted people would still be asleep.
Or it was meant to demoralize those who could see what the establishment is doing and thus create fear and a sense of hopelessness.
Don't let them succeed.
Hmm, I made a typo but it looks like the edit feature is gone? Others not seeing it either?
Edit: As a commenter pointed out below, it moved over to the far right (the three dots) but it's still there. This edit is proof!
Thank you and be careful. Very, very careful. We know by now that reporting facts can be bad for the health of one's on-line accounts (among other things). Including and perhaps especially, evidence-based facts. :) (N.b. Let's laugh while we still can ... )
I can’t edit either. When I tap the three dots all I get is delete or copy. No edit option
I haven't ever had an edit feature. Frustrating, for sure.
Jenn, it USED to appear when you clicked on the three dots (below and off to the right of your post). As of this morning at the latest >>> GONE ...
I’ve never been able to edit.I’ve been on Substack for a year or so.
Good catch... the edit option has vamoosed.
And what does "up-arrow in a box" followed by "SHARE" mean, I wonder? Thanks for any insight.
It moved to the far right. Maybe symbolic of a great idea.
Her analysis might cause people to "be hesitant" to do something that was more likely to kill them than to help them. So she had to be dealt with.
I guess for those pushing the juice, it's easier to look in the mirror when the people you kill are a statistic.
I appreciate Dr. Makary's study and his use of the word 'mockery,' but he still says the shot may be warranted for some high-risk people. This shot is not safe, or effective, and is not warranted for ANYONE, let alone someone who is "high risk!" Good grief.
Probably the only way it would get printed. Gotta love our media....
I thought the same thing.
Agreed, I wasn’t pleased to see that
Same.
Gonna kill those old folks in nursing homes by giving them the covid death shots.
Making way for more people in the nursing homes on waiting lists.
In the 70s Americans were bombarded by nursing homes and retirement center propaganda convincing grandma that she is a burden and should live in an old people’s enclave.

Generational living is important on so many levels, health of the elder being one among many. Generation supporting generation.
Eating mashed up food, wearing a diaper, and wishing for death at some point to put them out of their misery.
Makes me wonder if this was their solution to the SS running out of funds.
My comment when husb. first told me of this "disease" back in early 20. Also that it was Chinese bioweapon. Think I was wrong on that point, that it was DOD bioweapon (or just fakery to get death VAX shots into arms). How many actually factually did die in early '20?
Good question.
some are so empty they are now housing foreigners who crossed the
border without documentation!
Same in Pennsylvania with the former governor Thomas Wolf.
...and bolstered their absentee voter numbers.
I attended a local patriot group hosted talk last night given by a lady nutritionist who also had some hard science degrees attached to her name. The topic was vaccination. In this talk she refused to call covid vaccines vaccines, because they are not. She said up front that the injections were a bioweapon. So nice to here some refusing to enable 'their' lying language designation.
Makary has been on Limited Hangout duty since Day 1. I think he figured out that it would be lucrative to be just a little contrarian. That way all the cable news shows that wanted to get street cred for “balanced” reporting without pissing off their pharma overlords could wheel him out. I’d love to see how his income from the last few years compared to 2019. He’s a fraud in my book.
I didn't know this, but it is exactly what I thought when I read his "high-risk" comment. Wonder if Makary would give it to his high-risk relative?
And right on cue, here’s Makary and Fox Biz saying “oh, NOW we know based on the Cochrane study that masks don’t work”. Wrong Marty, if you’d read the historical studies that were available at the start of this fiasco you’d have seen that it’s been known for 75 years that they are useless at best, dangerous at worst.
But high-risk individuals are precisely the ones who are most likely to be killed by the injections. Not safe for man or animals. Period.
A diabetic friend took the shots and got pancreatic cancer after the 1st booster. She died. I miss her. Most of my local friends did not take the shot in small-town AL.
A friend's father died after getting the "vaccine." He was 70 and had no other health issues other than diabetes. Sorry about your friend.
Dan Bongino was convinced by his genius doc to get the jabs because of his cancer status. "immunocomprised" Bad call.
Yeah, and he truly regrets it.
Like Rush, and most well known people , he was also convinced to take chemo instead of treating his cancer holistically. It tells me they truly are minions who are not clued into real medicine by their Khazarian mafia handlers. Same with celebs like Christina Applegate (OK, maybe not one of them ) and Angelina Jolie (definitely one of them) who have preemptive mastectomies. Remember Jimmy Carter's brain cancer? Many years ago, right.? Once he got back on the reservation, they obviously told him what to do to fix it. So real medicine is reserved for the top echelon only
Khazarian? Can you elaborate?
Yes! My thought exactly as I read that stupid caveat they always have to throw in. How does it make sense to give something known to be ineffective and dangerous to already high risk people? Sounds like they just want to finish them off quicker.
Didn’t you just love the caution in red print that it wasn’t “peer reviewed?” 🤮
we need to redefine high risk people. I propose those who still wear a mask, or wish they would be mandated again, and every who thinks the jabs should be mandated.
Now we know the word “may” doesn’t mean squat in medical terms.
The “cultish” belief in vaxxxcenes dies hard - it is sooo entrenched!
I noticed that too!
Normally our pattern recognition would motivate us to look at a proper risk / benefit analysis.
But this is the age of "The Science."
Agree 💯
Matt Gaetz, undoubtedly, is outraged by McCarthy's dragging his feet over what should be a no brainer. Democrats live and breathe impeachment , knowing that if they throw enough of it against the wall, something is bound to stick sooner or later. Republicans can't even muster up an impeachment INQUIRY into what is blatantly obvious, the most corrupt administration in the history of our country. Go with your gut, Matt. We are counting on you. You, Trump, and precious few others are the firewall between democracy and full-blown totalitarianism.
I'm sorry but I don't place much hope in the "drip" scenario. There will never be any progress until there is accountability. For all the bluff and bluster in Congress, NO ONE has been held to account not even by Ron Johnson! I'm sorry but these Representatives, AGs and Governors have had the proof of blatant criminal actions in their hands for 2 years and they have never used them to hold anyone accountable by prosecuting them either in court or in Congressional hearings. They have had all the evidence they need to prosecute from Dr. David Martin and even I have forwarded this evidence to several AGs and Governors (including FL) and NOTHING has happened. Up to now, it has all been theater and I do not excuse it. The theater is intentional and all the politicians and AGs are cowards and bribe takers and cower before the likes of George Soros and company. Tell me I'm wrong.
We will get nothing but drip, drip, drip until so much time has past we forget what we are doing and in the end no one will ever be held accountable for the mass maiming and murder of millions of Americans and their children. Good God, we go to great pains to protect our children, everyone comes to a stop on the road when the school bus is unloading but we push toxins into their body that is going to sterilize them and shorten their lifespan by 20 to 50 percent and we don't bat an eyelash. The cognitive dissonance of the American mind must be bordering on complete insanity.
Bottom line, without accountability and prosecution, the cabal sociopaths and pedophile Marxist politicians who are behind this genocide WILL NOT STOP so don't even think this is anywhere close to being over.
Let's not get ahead of ourselves here. I'm sure that Rep Trey Gowdy is gonna come out with a BLOCKBUSTER report on Benghazi any minute now.
Trey Gowdy. What a huge disappointment. They must have had dirt on him.
Rowdy Gowdy. All hat, no cattle. Sure gave Hitlery a stern line of questioning.
Yeah, we all remember several Reps like Gowdy who start off sounding great and we all get a little bit of hope up. But they fall like a house of cards. It’d be interesting to know if they’re bought off or threatened. Maybe both.
I heard Trey is waiting for Graham to fire off "The Memo" ™
Oh no, this gives me flashbacks. Please stop :)
How about the fact that sos' from numerous states changed their election laws illegally, and not one has been prosecuted, ever.
Yep. Pennsylvania, stand up.
Heard in a podcast the plan is after Trump is convicted on one of these bogus crimes (all of which carry the penalty of not being able to run for public office. Just a coincidence I'm sure) , the SoS of each swing states (all bolsheviks) will rule Trump cannot be on the ballot. QED.

It’s almost as if Paul Ryan is still house speaker.
Right!!?? Where is the leverage that the conservatives used to put McCarthy in? Need to apply it now. Call some bluff.
Checked my super-duper conservative GOP Rep. Kevin Hern's website yesterday. Still nary a mention of the COVID-19 superscam, the predicament of J6 gulag prisoners, or impeachment.
He did want us to know he's all for the Military Industrial Complex "Defense" (what a putrid joke!) though
Also not mentioned on Rep. Hern's website was the $1.5M PPP "loan" that he received and was forgiven during the Scamdemic. (My two GOP Senators also had similar multi-hundred thousand dollar PPP loans forgiven.)
He prob just forgot to mention that.
Fred - they have sold their souls for a mess of porridge - Pity them when they stand before God for judgement
Fred, how did you find out about the PPP disbursements? I'd love to know what my representative got, if anything. Thank you!

Wow.
Joe Biggs & others convicted by the DC courts is the biggest travesty of justice that the “conservatives “ ignore. https://www.givesendgo.com/savejoebiggs
Dena, thank you for sharing this link. I feel so hopeless and helpless when it comes to the plight of J6 defendants but it's nice to have a way to help even if it isn't much. I get sick to my stomach every time I read one of these stories and just can't believe this is the country we live in now.

The Congress of All Hat and No Cattle! The Congress of Appropriations by Debt. The Congress of No Borders! The Congress of No Jobs. The Congress of the Destroyed Republic! The Congress of the Destroyed Dollar. (add your own to the list)
I sent a certified propsed indictment to the AG here in the corrupted state of Mass, I heard crickets. All they do is talk, so when I see their lips moving I naturally assume they’re lying…..always!
I love your impassioned comment Phil, and agree. But I’ve wondered if our AG Ken Paxton was coming dangerously close to holding some accountable and that’s the reason they are trying to impeach him.
My thoughts also which means he is doing better than my FL AG. They can't allow anyone to punch a hole in their Leftist dam. Once a hole is made, the rush of the water through the hole will soon collapse the entire dam. If TX prosecutes, the FL AG and Gov will have to follow.
A corollary to this is Katie Lake. If she had won the AZ Governorship, she would have declared an invasion and closed off the AZ border with armed National Guard. This would have forced NM and TX to do the same. At that point, CA would take ALL the pressure of illegal immigration which would collapse the state. They could not allow this so they pulled out all the stops to keep her from winning the election. The election of Katie Hobbs is the most blatant, in you face election fraud on the same scale - maybe worse - as the election of O'Biden.
All that you point out MUST be prosecuted. What makes me truly furious though are the men and women who entered ‘The PEOPLE’S’ House on Jan 6. The ONLY person hurt was Ashley Babbit, shot and killed by a POLICEMAN for standing in line. The Capitol Police let people in. These American Citizens wandered through the People’s House, some even stayed between the tourist ropes - we SAW this on the tapes. It was NOT an insurrection OR a riot. They burned nothing. Someone maybe took Pelosi’s pen. And these poor souls have been in PRISON for over 2 years, and they have NOT been proven guilty! They are NOT receiving due process. forced to wear orange jumpsuits when they finally get a Court date to intimidate and humiliate them in front of their families. The televised Commission on Jan 6 was a Kangaroo Court. This is a DARK Stain on America, keeping Political Prisoners and NOW trying to put a past PRESIDENT in jail!!! Why? Because these power hungry DemocRat cowards want to win an election. Any dirty way they can.
The EXACT same thing happened in Nazi Germany.
Agree, drip, drip, drip… will never work – is only a distraction to keep the natives from becoming too restless. And, it is also important to realize that there will be no “accountability and [successful] prosecution[s]” until public officials, including those in Congress, can be held legally liable for violating their oaths of office (in strict compliance with US Constitution).
What can ordinary citizens do to help remedy this dire situation? Best chance of a successful fix is likely to be pressuring SCOTUS into to setting a precedent wrt to officeholders being legally accountable for oath violations. Which is already a case on SCOTUS Docket (Case # 22-1028) under Rule-11 ("imperative public importance … to require immediate determination" by SCOTUS).
By visiting https://loybrunson.com/, citizens can help pressure SCOTUS into acting on this case, by sending them a letter to this effect, takes only a few minutes of time and $2 (seems ripe for a multiplier). And of course people should then ask their family, their friends, members of their church, etc to do the same.
And for those who think letter writing campaigns are always a waste of time, please take the few minutes needed to learn about the one that stopped HHS from trying to sterilized Americans on a mass scale in 2009 (See 1:05:12-1:09:50 of https://rumble.com/v2jbo0g-top-whistleblower-dr.-rima-laibow-warns-globalists-preparing-new-bio.html)
Politico Phil - PREACH!!!!
Agreed. Matt Gaetz has so much potential. I hope he doesn't become another do-nothing RINO.
There are 535 power and wealth hungry schemers he has do deal with.
Congressman Gaetz has his work cut out for him.
Mccarthy did what his real job was - delay and deflect for the uniparty of which the rinos are part of GOPe wing of it. He's a traitor too along with a majority in congress.
I agree!
"I have reflected on it deeply. I will endeavor to be better."
It's not a good sign when he uses Marxist struggle session language.
Maybe his strategy is “get as much evidence as possible before impeachment” whereas the democrats simply fabricate their evidence, hire the FBI as paid actors, plant evidence, use CIA resources to frame the accused, and prosecute as a means of political elimination.
Lord, how much "evidence" does he need. We have real world evidence piled mountain high for all to see. From here on out, my attitude is "I'll believe it when I see it."
I completely lost hope in Sen. Rand Paul when he announced there wasn’t enough evidence to start impeachment of Biden.
Horse crap. We’re being gaslighted. Again.
Et tu, Rand?
I was definitely being sarcastic 😂
How much more evidence could they possibly need? It is hard to fathom the level of corruption we witness every day with these zombie government agencies. How is such staggering and blatant fraud okay with Americans? Is complacency and ignorance able to choke out our freedoms without a fight?
Right. A literal recording of a confession of quid pro quo.
And they actually have Ralph Baric doing just that.
maybe
And now ET Shifty Schiff wants to pull the 14th amendment out if his magic hat.
“No two papers had the same answer and none of them were correct” - college professor on simple math problem implies two things:
1. The good news: no one copied off of anyone else, and
2. The bad news: a college freshman unable to calculate a simple subtraction formula is not a problem due to loss of education during Covid. They should have learned this in fourth grade. What’s wrong with our STEM education?
George Bush “no child left behind “
B.Obama “ common core”
The final nails in the coffin of the dumbing down of education.
Common Core is “No child gets ahead.”
Common Core math is absolute garbage.
Find old traditional math books and teach you children math at home. Good luck finding good math books. The old ones are sent to the dump by the schools. Saxon Math is excellent.
Should be renamed common crap.
The whole point of common core is to factor out the parent or any older mentor in the child’s life that might help him/her with math bc “we don’t do math the way you used to.” It’s absolutely intentional to make it impossible for kids to understand and to divide the generations.
Just spent some homework time with a common core math child entering fourth grade. It was painful. The process to multiply and divide is preposterous. Bright little one too. BTW, she has a presidential scholar certificate signed by none other than JRB. Is it declaring her queen of the pigs?
Circulum is changed every few years so the parents cannot
help their children with their homework. It is another way the state tries to separate a child from their family and dumb down the nation.
My kids have trouble with time when I say, It's a quarter to eight!
Saxon Math is fantastic. I used it during homeschooling.
Singapore Math is good too. They used that at my son's classical school. He came from public school where he had been using Common Core and it was quite a rude awakening for him but he did get caught up.
Singapore math was my favorite when I was home schooling.
Bill Gates bankrolled Common Core. https://www.forbes.com/sites/howardhusock/2014/06/18/bill-gates-and-the-common-core-did-he-really-do-anything-wrong/?sh=343fca9a6faa
Although, I have to say my husband & I were scratching our heads with our Son’s 4th grade math last night - and we are both college graduates 🤯
That's because of the nature of "Common Core."
They mandate that children work out problems in the least intuitive way possible, and will not give credit to children who work them out in whatever way they understand the best.
It's a setup for discouragement and failure.
It's being done with intent, when you go far enough up the food chain. At the lower levels, in the trenches, many teachers don't have the intellectual horsepower to unpack what is being done to the children. And they don't have the humility to admit this if you point it out.
It's an ugly and wicked a thing to do to the children now in school.
Tom, that makes sense. These "word problems" were so abstract and brain draining - that both my husband and son went from a decent homework session to beyond frustration - and what exactly was learned? I'll need to read up about common core as this is the first year that we are experiencing these strange non concrete math problems- I ask my son - did your teacher review this with you during the school day? And he replies no - oh and it's all on the chrome book --- more screen time!
Nothing was learned but compliance.

That guy is behind everything. It wouldn't surprise me if he comes in my house and takes away single socks, leaving mismatches. Then he tangles up wire coat hangers and leaves them in my closet.
My mother pulled out a math book from the 1940’s to teach me because I didn’t learn from new math. I ended up in statistics because I love math. Look in thrift shops for a math book you understand to help.
I was in HS in the late 60's in CA and was being taught what was then the "new math". As if there is a newer way 2+2 adds up! I didn't do well. When I got into college, I took a course in applied math/business math. The light bulb came on. From that point on I was tutoring math to college veterans for money.
I should ask my mom, she is a keeper of everything :)
Buy Saxon Math and your son will run circles around his friends.
I looked this up- thank you.
Check out my longer post today about homeschooling.
They want everything to be so complicated these days. Former teacher here. No one really needs to know and be tested on 9 different ways to subtract in 2nd grade. And I am not making that up! I would definitely Home School if I had small children now.
This is no surprise after listening to Mr Magoo rattle off numbers that make absolutely no sense whatsoever. The perfect role model for idiots.
Insulting to actual Mr Magoo. Shame.
"It takes a village." Marxist proverb.
Those college kids were left behind as children.
Exactly! We should not let them try and blame the sorry state of America's childrens education on Covid school closures. This dumbing down of children has been going on since the "new math" of the 80's and 90's. For the past 2-3 decades they have been herding the children that are not "college material" into colleges in order to 1) drive up the price of college through increase demand, 2) capture the minds of the youth and 3) put them in debt that they can never repay so they will be very willing to DEMAND the New World Order's Universal Basic Income, et al.
Yes, my dentist, almost 20 years ago told me that her daughter went to college and all her friends who were A students, on the principal's list, in NHS, etc, were flunking out of college. Then she told me they all switched majors to things like event planning and how the school had invented a bunch of new cake walk degrees to keep getting money from those kids and send them off with a diploma. which is why the college debt situation has gotten so bad in the last 2 decades.
STEM degrees should be the ONLY ones where you get any govt financial aid (PELL grants, etc).
I think trade schools would be a better place to give grants than to college bound students.
Yep. I was a 4.0 GPA Honor Student in my East L.A. high school, was accepted to Pitzer College (Claremont, Ca.), and found myself woefully ill-prepared for the academic rigor I faced. Of course, I figured out “the game” and managed to achieve a 3.8 GPA upon graduation from Pitzer, still not knowing shit. I wish someone had sent me to a trade school! Thanks for nothing, Affirmative Action.
My older kids went in to college so "front loaded" with credits - thanks the the scam of AP courses - that they qualified as second semester sophomores. HOWEVER, my third child said, "Sure, I got 5s on all my APs but they did not prepare me for college level work." It's all pure money-making BS devised by College Board. (A happy ending for my son who is now studying for his actuarial exams, but that freshman year at an elite tech school just about broke him and he failed out. Came back home and did his year of "purgatory" at a community college and got his act together.)
Oh yea, APs are as big a scam as the SAT/ACT nonsense.
Yes exactly.
In CA, they had "new math" in the late 60's. I know cuz I was a student.
I went to Catholic school in NY in the 60's. I guess they didn't have the money for the "new math" so I was fortunate to be trained with the regular math. (We recited those times tables - out loud - for weeks, along with "The Bible is he written word of God", again.)

Video explaining "new math." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PCgo0syhQqU
Sad that this is creeping into the homeschool curriculum in places. I have a relative who is very diligently homeschooling her kids. I helped out one day with some of the math lessons. I could not understand why the lesson was grouping every problem into "tens" and "ones" and generally taking up sheets of paper to do 20 problems. When I tried to show the "old" way of lining up the the numbers and figuring the columns from right to left, I was told "we don't do it that way."
On an interesting note, during a family get together, one of the kids invited us to join in an experiment. He handed out a timed multiplication test like the kind we took back in grade school: 100 problems in one minute. We had not done one of those since 6th/7th grade - a long, long time ago! Given the age range of the adults (50s/60s/70s), it had been between 40 and 65 years since any of us had taken one of these speed math tests! The experiment the youngster had designed was in three parts: 1st test - no music; 2nd test - classical music; 3rd test - hard rock music. Then he tallied up the scores for each round to see if we had improved, worsened, or stayed the same. His hypothesis was that we would do worse with the rock music and better with the classical. Wrong! For the most part, each of us did better with each successive test. This led to a fascinating discussion with the lad about what might the reason be that his experiment did not yield the results he expected.
Mrs. "the Knife"
I homeschooled both my boys through 12th grade based on a self-study approach using the curriculum I provided. Only the basic phonic skills and basic math skills learned in the early grades need a teacher to teach the student. After that, it was all self-study with supervision. All I had to do was check their work.
Saxon Math is the *ONLY* math curriculum to use! (I know a lot of ppl will argue.)
They finished Algebra 2 in 9th grade, Advanced Math (trig) in 10th grade, Calculus in 11th grade and The Mechanical Universe physics textbook I ordered from CalTech in 12th grade. All on a self-study basis (no way could I teach that stuff.) Also, there as no separate Geometry course. Geometry was incorporated throughout the math books.
When they enrolled in college, they took Advance Placement tests and tested out of every course they could. The college counselor told me that homeschooled students were always superior students and he never had to worry about them.n He also said their SAT scores were amazing. (I had them take the SAT test every year to document their educational progress.) After they went to college both my boys (they are seven years apart in age) told me they couldn't understand why their classmates were having such a hard time and complaining all the time. They said college was the same as what they did in homeschool. I told them it was because institutional schooling spoon-feeds the student and they never learn to study on their own which is what is required in college.
My educational paradigm was arithmetic, reading and writing, the three R's, in that order. The average school day lasted maybe 4 hours. My philosophy was geniuses are not born, they're made.
Bravo! Well done! I love hearing about home schooled kids well launched into adulthood, whether that means college, trade school, entrepreneurship, etc. A friend homeschooled her three daughters. They completed their studies by age 16 and went on to college, graduating by age 20- 2 became nurses, 1 a traveling nurse and 1 a flight nurse with a medevac company, and the 3rd became a PA, completing her studies AFTER becoming a paraplegic in a snowboarding accident.
Mrs. "the Knife"
Wow, I almost did that. When I was a college sophomore in Utah, I hit a tree snow skiing and fractured my hip. At the time, I thought I had broke my back. Recovered fine.
I didn't structure the home schooling all by myself. I had a lot of help in coming up with a model for home schooling. I went to home school conventions and listened to parents talking about their experience. I observed that a lot of parents had burn-out from home schooling. This was due to their attempt to reproduce the institutional classroom model as their model for their home school. Wrong model.
I came across Dr. Art Robinson of the Oregon Institute of Science and Medicine (OISM). Art and his wife were research scientists. He and his wife were home schooling, mostly his wife, their six young children. But his wife very suddenly died from a rare illness. In his desperation to figure out how to run his research institute and home school his children at the same time, he developed a self-teaching paradigm of home school and published his thoughts in the Institute's mailings which I subscribed to. He was in the midst of developing a curriculum based on his ideas which was not available yet. Saxon math was an important part of it.
I needed something now so I adopted his home schooling philosophy and started accumulating my own curriculum using a lot of the same materials he was going to incorporate. But the important part was the model he developed for homeschooling that allowed him to meet the needs of both his children and his career at the same time as a single parent of six (I think it was six).
That's just a long winded way of saying, if you are thinking of homeschooling, I recommend the Robinson Self-Teaching Curriculum. The basic 12 year curriculum is only $195. All you have to add are the the Saxon math books. Study his philosophy to get a good understanding of how it works and you should be on your way. After the first year of experiencing the program, the program becomes fairly automatic for the student. All you need to do is read the material on his web site to become familiar. Here's the links:

Are your boys out in the working world? Just curious what they pursued careerwise.
My oldest wanted a career that was completely portable so he became a programmer and now works in the "cloud". Is now the lead for Butcher Box keeping all their business in the cloud and works from his home on the side of the mountain above Chattanooga. My youngest got into the doctorate pharmacology program at UF straight out of community college just based on his test scores and now manages the specialty therapies division for a Chicago pharmaceutical company. He works from home in FL. When the company said he and his team had to get the vaxx, he told them to pack sand. He won that fight.
Excellent! Both working from home and they sound like they've made great use of the wisdom passed down to them!
Sounds like a fun experiment. However, his results may have been different if he had you do hard rock music first. By the 3rd test, your minds were warmed up and like riding a bike, math was coming back from the vaults of your brain.
That was basically the conclusion the adults reached. We were incredibly rusty the first time through, but by the time we got to the 3rd run-through, we were warmed up and the "math muscle memory" had kicked in. With that in mind, if he wanted to "rig" the test results with a different group of people (a la Pfizer/Moderna clinical trials), all he would have to to is run the tests in this order: hard rock, silence, classical, and he would probably get the test results to "prove" his hypothesis.

Re: the video:
Oh my god that is how they teach it now?
I had heard some criticisms before, but....
Way to make a 5-second calculation turn into 5 minutes.
So depressing.
No need to worry about this kid! This is adorable!
With this "new" math the students spend so much time wasting the learning with boxes and circles and placements rather that take the time to practice content with 40 problems. With the "new" math the students are given 10 problems and 4 word problems. Students don't learn math by only doing 10 or less exercises.
Allowing calculators in the class room and to use during test. Not good. I wouldn’t let my kids use them at home. I have to say they were proud of the fact that they excelled at math. They got it. I believe parents need to be involved in their education by pushing them to be their best. I was ok with a B in a class with a very hard teacher... they learned more from her than one who gave out an easy A.
The fact that it is STEM education. They need to go back to what worked, back in the old days without all the new stuff and mumbo jumbo. No need to make it more complicated. There are many problems: One big one these days are they are having high-functioning autistic children in normal classrooms, which slows learning down by A LOT as they learn slower. But, I have always thought instead of teaching by 'age', they should teach by 'ability'. Some kids learn math faster than others, some read sooner than others. They should be learning by ability, not age. If they get stuck say on...division and fractions....they may have to stay behind a bit before moving on up, if you get what I'm saying. They'll catch up eventually and it will all even out or they will even ZOOM ahead of the average kiddo. But to do it by age and then make it taboo to stray from that average range, be it learning a bit slower or faster, is a big factor in what is wrong with our education system. That and all the nutjobs they seem to be hiring these days :P
Maybe we should go back to the McGuffey Readers and Ray's Arithmetic? Kids don't get passed on to the next level until they master the contents of the current one?
Just a thought
Mrs. "the Knife"
Yes, that is pure nonsense. People love a good scape goat that distracts from the real problems. And boy has COVID provided an excuse for all of society's ills (not that the reactions to it didn't exacerbate many of them).
Why were those kind of questions even on the test? It's absurd, and a good demonstration of the state of "higher" education.
I work farmers markets and part of what I do is: I have two scales. I have two customers at a time, all the time. One customer might have three bags--say, 5 lbs at $3.50/lb, 10 lbs at $1.30/lb, and 2.5 lbs at $7.00/lb. For six hours straight, I'm adding three prices, telling the customer the total, adding three other prices, telling the other customer the total, taking cash from the first customer and making change with zero thought, it's instant, that subtraction, then starting to add the new customer's totals, then taking the other customer's cash, making change, etc.
Plus be friendly and have little conversations, answer questions, etc.
Point of this is not to brag about how well I carry the ones but rather to add:
I've worked with a lot of high-school and college kids over the last 15 years of doing this, and exactly one had this ability. All the others need the phone calculator to add for them, to make change for them.
But I mean, to the world it's a nothing skill.
Nobody respects the basics anymore. If it's not electrified and glowing, it must be useless and boring.
I agree with the common core garbage and such but the disruption and forced online schooling did not help. My daughter started a private college prep high school in fall 2019. Her grades were mostly B and she was doing fine though had always struggled in math so we made sure she got extra help through the school. Then came 2020/2021 and the help evaporated and we couldn’t assist. By junior year when things were back to mostly normal, I called for a conference when she was failing math by the beginning of October. The teacher told me the ENTIRE CLASS was failing. They had to go back a rearrange the syllabus to reteach the lessons from the prior (online) year. Between this and a lot of expensive tutoring, we finally got her back to a B by the time she applied to college but there were a lot of struggles for kids due to the ridiculously long online period.
So did I. Then weird phrases like “least common denominators” started trickling back into my mind and it all came together. Whew!
And although you were formerly alienated and hostile in mind, engaged in evil deeds, yet He has now reconciled you in His fleshly body through death, in order to present you before Him holy and blameless and beyond reproach— if indeed you continue in the faith firmly established and steadfast, and not moved away from the hope of the gospel that you have heard, which was proclaimed in all creation under heaven, and of which I, Paul, was made a minister.

Regarding the math entry, the education establishment is just using COVID as an excuse. Of course we know it negatively affected students in major ways, but these are COLLEGE LEVEL students who would have been in HIGH SCHOOL during COVID disruptions. And these kids can't do BASIC math that my elementary aged children can do. This is a systemic failure in math education, likely stemming from the disastrous Common Core standards and/or the ridiculous idea that precision and mastery of math is somehow racist. What they have done (probably intentionally) is rob an entire generation of kids of basic logic, which is established in part by sound math instruction. Just like they robbed a generation of cursive writing, which is a brain building activity. And like they robbed a generation of literacy with "whole language" learning. Their "innovations" in school curriculum have made now multiple generations DUMBER. Don't let them off the hook by letting them cry COVID. This is 100% a result of their idiotic policies and choices.
They want idiots because idiots will comply. They want those who care not capable of independent thought or reasoning because they will likely see through the b.s. and fight back. They want morons who cut off their sex organs so they can't reproduce because of 'saving the planet' b.s. In short, they want slaves to the system and that's what they are getting.
Yes, and apparently it is working, look at what happened the last 3 years. If I had had a college aged student in 2020, 2021 or 2022, I wouldn't have sent them to college to be locked in their dorm rooms or forced to take jabs or wear a mask. I would've told them to go get a job until the nonsense blows over. I wouldn't have sent my kids to any school to be masked. If we hadn't already been homeschooling, we would've started asap.
Yes, all this! The Prussian model of education is doing just what it was intended to do – create mindless workers who follow orders. I think this single change (adopting the Prussian model in education), which happened in the mid-1800s, could possibly be the source of the destruction of our republic. So many problems have flowed from this single change in education.
I have come to understand the phrase "sons of disobedience."
Also: "You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father's desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a liar and the father of lies."
I remember a meme not so long ago. Some act of depravity would be depicted, and the caption was, "Y'all need Jesus."
It became a meme so that it would be mocked when it became obviously true.
Just like "Antivaxxer" searches on google peaked massively in the summer of 2019.
Just like "Christian Nationalism" has become an epithet.
These things are not accidents. We are dealing with principalities.
And so, if I say "These people need Jesus," many will have that mocking meme in their subconscious.
But greater is He who is in me than he who is in the world.

That was my first thought -- these kids should have learned about negative numbers long before covid was a gleam in Bill Gates's eye. The other thought was that these were apparently STEM students, the future builders of bridges and airplanes.
In one century we went from teaching Latin and Greek in high school to offering remedial English in college.

Made my husband laugh when I said I could do the ‘-6-8’ problem without Excel. How can there be 20-30 different answers (assuming the number of students in a class) to that question? Sad.
I blame Common Core. They took standard old fashioned math and made it ridiculous and more difficult. Nieces were great at math until common core and then had trouble.
Maybe Prager U can make some basic math videos?
There are already excellent homeschool virtual math courses. Maybe the schools should start investing. Heck they'd be better off just watching Khan Academy than getting math ed in public schools and Khan is free, I think.
Common Core was bankrolled and pushed by Bill Gates. https://levittownteachers.org/updates/godfather-common-core-admits-failure
Doesn’t that figure. Dr Bill is involved with every negative in the world.
"Dr. Bill" - ha ha!
Common Core disillusions children. By design.
Yes. This is the result of Common Core Math. I tutored elementary school students through this time period and it was so difficult for them. They had to be able to do a math problem several different ways and the last thing they learned was a traditional algorithm. By this time they were completely confused and didn’t spend enough time with it to become a rote memory skill.
People react to the word "memorization" like you just said "Hitler was a righteous dude" or something. It gets such a bad rap, which is surprising because at the same time, athletes--who muscle-memorize things--are so revered. Really no substitute for it, in many instances. BASIC MATH being one of them.
You nailed all of it! It’s absolutely why parents need school choice or homeschooling. There is an educational philosophy that works! Find it for your kids and DO IT!
Insane Woke policies create a 'country' which cannot compete in the world market. This contributes to the high probability that America will fail ... as it already is doing.
They are destroying us and hastening our fall on so many fronts.
Hi Angela !!! And you said a whole mouth ... and yes, destroy us equals warring upon us. And what does that make 'them'? Maybe the enemy? The implications are thus:
1) Our enemies have captured our governments. In doing so they have made us alien, the stranger in the land which our forebears conquered. In short, A DISPOSSESSED PEOPLE with no land to call our place of habitation.
2) Those who pretend to be OUR representatives but have done nothing to preserve our lives and property, what should we think of them? Such should be ridiculed and despised by us ... and be accorded no credibility whatsoever. They are effectually nothing more than enablers of the Evil which tears at us. Enough is enough. We are at the end of our rope. No More!
3) We must refuse to participate in their Evil and in their multiple and serial perpetration of criminal acts. We must not comply. We must resist.
4) We must demand the return of what is ours, our lives, our property including government, that of the family, the Church and the government of the civil magistrate, as ordained by God.
We have to stop them. Otherwise they will kill us all ... one way or another.
Covid just made it worse. That was also one of their idiotic policies and choices. But I agree, the dumbing down and low standards started a long time ago 😕
Excellent statement of the exact problem.
Excellent! Absolutely!
Wow! Coffee & Covid in time to have with my coffee today!
Thanks, Jeff, for all you do.
SF...who cares? The new piranha virus...who cares? Burning man now snorkel man...who cares? I think we have had enough "burnings" in this country for quite a while.
We know for a 110% fact that all mRNA concoctions have never been thoroughly tested in long term trials which is standard (7-12 years) for vaccines. However, even the standard vaccine trials are faked and not very proficient (see the book "Turtles All The way Down").
See, i think there is data pre-2019 about the mRNA jobs that give just enough lethality and injury while masking as a credible "vaxx". It is BioWeapon II in the culling plan. I don't give anyone a pass on Warped and Speedy, hustle the global Vaxxes out in billions of doses in less than a year. Not tested thoroughly for safety and efficacy for a reason...that wasn't the purpose of the poison; tested enough for a legit cover and decent amount of harm (not too lethal nor too quickly harmful) then sell a bunch of phony dose placebo to look like a tireless production rate being sent out to "save" millions of lives while further diluting and concealing the targeted death Vaxx distribution and PRESTO! a New World Order can emerge. Various independent inquiry boards need to be set up (SHOULD HAVE BEEN a year or 2 back) to snap up all the variety of various lots of the Vaxx doses to test and analyze them for salinity and all the other ingredients and quackery used in the Witches' Brews that were deployed upon humanity; Was SinoVax used in Indonesia anything but water? maybe a few heavy metals sprinkled in like much of the foods and medicines produced in China for export? Astra Sickenya compared to J&J let's get a better look at the toxic snake oils that were and STILL are being offered
Gotta agree.
Encourage them to take all the drugs prescribed and pushed by the medical community too.
Cruxcyon - absolutely correct!
Jeff - perhaps a multiplier for Naomi Wolf and The DailyClout?
I think it’s safe to say we can thank them for Pfizer’s stock price tumbling.
https://naomiwolf.substack.com/p/an-appeal?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email
No! I don't trust that woman and I never will. I'm not sure why, just instincts.
I see a real turning in her. Just like me--a complete reversal of what I believed to be true. I basically took to my bed for a bit when it all hit me and sought God. She is doing the same --understanding the “something else out there in the spiritual world “. God. And the deceitful one stalking amongst us. I have been where she is and she has a voice.
She also has a great husband. Former Special Forces.
Owner of firearms.
I think he has been a great influence on her to see the other side.
Yes!! I’m positive he has been one of her “rocks”.
Yes! I agree.
She even wrote in her Substack about attending a Trump speech and it was very positive. She ended by saying that she believes he truly loves his country.
I read that post. It was remarkable. I’m heading that direction myself. I just worry about the total deranged hate on the left. They are chaos. The left promotes a myth. Like they always do.
Get back to me when she donates big $$$ to PDJT.
I think she feels that her money and time are best spent exposing the lies from Pfizer and the government. She feels that the shot is a bioweapon that is meant to depopulate. I heard her speak at Hillsdale, and she's great.
She's a lot further along than you would believe or is rationally expected from a liberal starting where she was pre covid. But I've been along with her for the transformation.
She's been impacted physically and emotionally by events that have lead her to lean more and more conservative and always bodily freedom.
She was in her house when see someone broke in, which lead to learning to shoot a gun and knowing where it is. She wrote about that opening her eyes to why law abiding citizens would NEED a gun.
She's viewed the covid jabs always from a woman's rights point of view, which compelled her to search for danger to child bearing aged and pregnant woman, leading to uncovering of the massive destruction to them.
And each step of the way, she understands the medical freedom POV more and professes regret at her treatment of us and conservatives.
She wrote a Substack post apologizing for her behavior, not o ly asking for forgiveness but clearly explaining why she knows her actions and words were wrong. Not "could have been taken wrong." Wrong.
Everything we have all said we wanted from anti vaxxers and those that actually attacked us, she has done despite never publicly attacking any of us.
And look at what her focus has done? Her team of hundreds of expert volunteers organized with Bannon's help discovered and published 90% of the facts in that WSJ article TWO YEARS AGO.
We all owe HER an apology for continuing to doubt her. I'm as conservative as anyone. I want Nuremberg 2.0 and public hangings. Naomi just wants accountability and a halt of the harms.
So, arguably, she's a better person than I am in all this.
She is your very valuable ally. I'd bet my 60+ year conservative life on it.
BTW, she called this a genocide sponsored by our government on Bannon's show and in her Substack. MORE THAN A YEAR AGO.
I agree. She is now passionately opposing the vax. I have had my mind changed a time or two, three, four.....as more facts emerge so. Yes. I believe she has changed.
I believe it too.
She called it a genocide before doing so was cool. Or even possible. She has walked the walk publicly and sharing thoughts that most of us hope we'd have the courage to take if we found out we'd been foolish or fooled. We should admire her poise and humility through that journey. I know I do.
Thank you, Janet. So many are not really our enemies; just hostages in enemy camp. We should not give up on a change of heart for anyone IMO.
I think her posts are very observant and thought provoking. I am intrigued by so many from the left moving to the left, or refusing to move left anymore. I enjoy what Dr. Wolf writes even if I don’t fully support all of it. Well, truthfully, I do concur with most. She just needs to see the light regarding the climate control agenda.
I think that will come. It took me awhile. I was so puzzled at the behavior of my church during Covid. One of the posts where she acknowledged the spiritual true evil and was probably seeing an entity behind it and her commenters fleshing that out was a relief to me. Confirmed to me what was behind all this. I was galvanized and moved from the left.
I will be adding a pay component to her substack.
I sense the same thing in Naomi, Janet. It has been very moving to see the awakening in her recently.
I don’t trust her either Rebecca. Also gut. But I’m thankful for much of what she has done for COVID.
Yes!
Unlike 1 trick pony Modn, Pfz planned ahead:
4/28/21 Pfz acquired Amplyx Pharmaceuticals … therapies for debilitating and life-threatening diseases that affect people with compromised immune systems.
And 12/21/21 Arena Pharm for pulmonary arterial hypertension and inflammatory indications.
Seems like compromised is a great descriptive for just about everything from our immune systems to big gov, pharma, air, water, food, land, education. In fact today our air quality is Uber compromised supposedly due to fires in Canada. So I guess that smoke ? Is probably compromising my ability to safely prune the shrubs, take the dog for a walk, water the flowers, talk to the neighbors, and on and on. So what’s in that smoke ? Anybody have any ideas? Anything compromising?
In order for them to purchase a company there are months of due diligence and negotiations.
So, they knew and planned their cash-in on the damaging but protected jab elixir in 2020, before it was even released on the first responder guinea pigs who were jabbed in late 2020.
It's the response to the pandemic, not the pandemic, that has lowered students' ability to do math, or likely anything else at this point. And a lot of that blame goes to the teachers unions; which in the end, are elected by the teachers.
I agree that the pandemic has hurt students, but, I'm sorry, the math those university (pre calculus & calculus!) students couldn't do *should* have been taught and learned pre Covid! Adding & subtracting negative numbers & adding fractions is *not* upper high school math! (Is it? 😬 Maybe I am old...)
I laughed when I read the blame game onthat one. No, this is another example of affirmative action not based on skin color. These kids are imbeciles, and should be working at Starbucks. If they could figure change.
They don’t really need to, people use cash app and credit cards and so on most of the time 😕
Not sure I'd trust them to do that!
They can't, but it's okay; register will for them.
No, you are correct. Was thinking the same.
The blame is, in this case, misplaced.
That strikes me as grammar school, middle school math.
Seems to me, you can't solve THAT equation, as a high school student , you aren't even contemplating college.
At least, back in the day.
Read the teachers union president of CPS decries and demonizes “choice”. But sends her kid to a private school. Of course.
Always! Same with all of the Democrats opposed to school choice!
Rules for thee but not for me.
Always!
You're right!
Yeah, I think it's more like 9th grade math!
Subtraction? More like 3rd grade math.
Subtracting negative numbers. More like middle school. Possibly late elementary depending on school and student ability.
We do this math beginning in 4th grade.
By now it should be perfectly clear that to put your young child into the state (public) indoctrination (school) system is to intentionally ruin your child's ability to think rationally and to ruin his/her emotional development. There are no more excuses.
Agree 💯
The dummies-in-freshman-class problem has roots much deeper than the plandemic and the shutdowns. Likely a majority of the current frosh crop are products of government schools, where disciplined and effective education has been absent for two to three decades.
Yep. This is NOT NEW. Colleges were offering remedial classes in math and English (probably others) back in the '80's (probably earlier). I tutored them. HOW they got into college? Later I tutored a freshman in college whose parent was my boss. An honors student in HS who had no fundamental understanding of algebra. Actually fractions were problematic. She wanted to be a doctor. Such delusion.
Doctors and veterinarians have to figure out correct dosages based on weight. Too much or too little can be fatal.
The unions are made by the teachers and the teachers are quite possibly majority socialists - https://twitter.com/DrKarlynB/status/1698724689378521453
Yup. And all those hippies from the 60ss and 70s that fell under the spell of Marcuse, Freire and Giroux have been "the establishment" and running (ruining) our educational system for 60 years.
Tragically, Progressive John Dewey promoted this socialism
In the public school system wayyy back since the 1920’s
By the way, James Lindsay has a whole podcast on the queering of the ALA
https://newdiscourses.com/2023/07/american-library-association-is-queering-the-catalog/
Gross 🤮
I love Jame’s intellectual capacity but find his stuff a bit too heady to consistently listen too. He’s too academic, and I like smarts!
I'm not sure the scamdemic had as much to do with students not learning a darn thing as a curriculum that is more concerned with DIE (DEI) and what bathroom to pee in. Oh, and math is "too white", according to some of these lunatics.
Yep!!!! The powers at be so not want our children to be independent thinkers, people who can problem solve as well as be productive adults. They want everyone to be in the government dole..... supporting their communistic ideals. And thus accomplishing the ultimate goal of destroying our national sovereignty, eating bugs, and not owning one single thing!!!! Pure evil!
Also the kids today now know a large percentage are not to be respected or trusted. I told my kids and their friends the same. They agree.
Since the pandemic is responsible for poor Math skills, the pandemic must have started at least 50 years ago. Twenty years ago, I was a Math Instructor in a two-year college and one of the courses I taught was Basic Math (aka Arithmetic). Going against the prevaling fad, I would not allow the use of calculators. One day, a student, a woman in her forties, breathlessly said to me, "You won't believe what happened last night! I balanced my checkbook and then said to myself 'where's my calculator?' And do you know what? When I checked my balance, it was right"! What happened 50 years ago, in the 1970's ? New Math! That's the real pandemic: relying on so-called experts to solve non-existing problems and ending up with disasters
They taught "new math" in my elementary in CA. I moved to Florida and took a placement test. They probably thought I was mentally retarded. With the help of a tutor and a good math teacher I caught up and excelled. Real math skills. Later in college (back in CA) I tutored students students who were not taught math. I understood how it can happen.
People now IRL cannot make change without the aid of a cash register. Even with a calculator some cannot sort how to deal with someone who (for ex) adds 3 pennies to a 12.03 to get bills and no coins for change. I used to try to help the cashiers understand. Now I just tell them the answer.
I add the pennies all the time and still get blank looks.
POS programs at retail registers will tell you exactly how much change to give once you put in the amount the customer has given you. No need for anyone to think anymore! lol.
U N T I LLL.............
Cashier: Your order comes to $47.53
Customer: Here's a $50.
(cashier enters $50 to the register not paying attention to the fact customer is fishing through her purse)
Customer: Oh I have 3 cents!
Stunned, whole body paralysis ensues. Double paralysis if the customer also cannot sort it. Triple if the lady with all her groceries already on the belt cannot do some figrin.
Pray we do not get EMP blasted.
only the old timer cashiers understand that.
That was always so me, had my penny purse ready and watched with a smile as they tried to figure it out.
LOL
Some even have pictures, have you seen?!?!?
Of the coins?
Yes!
Hahaha--I do that all the time when I work farmers markets. Say the total is 10.55, a person will be pulling out his cash, maybe hand me a twenty, and I, seeing the bills in his hand or wallet, will say "Want to give me twenty-one?"
That inevitably gets a few eye-blinks.
Then I tried to pay that way at Home Depot the other day and the cashier was all, "Did you want to give me this much money?" LOL. "Yes, yes I did." Just enter that amount into your magic register and be amazed!
😂
Our store hired an idiot for a cashier. She count not count to save her life. A customer had 37 cents in change and just sat there staring at the drawer. She honestly could not figure it out and finally started counting out nickels, which she got the amount wrong anyhow and I had to correct her. The school system she graduated from wants a levy. I plan to tell them, at a public meeting, that I will never vote for more money because some idiot in their school system gave that idiot a high school diploma. Can't count to 37 and can graduate. Got it.
There are thousands of stories just like yours. Becausee my husband believes in exact change, I listen to a new one every week.
Also tell them about the masked woman at the register at Home Goods who gave back change for $200 and change when her customer gave her a $20 and change. When shocked customer said "You see the problem here, right? as she held her hand with all that cash out before the cashier. She didn't see it (I assume judging by the scrunched face like I had administered a pop quiz). So I told her what happened. She was SH*TLESS.
Honestly. DUH.
And you cannot even say "DUH" anymore. But that school board should make it a new rule for the school year that any stupidity children notice in teachers must be responded to with "DUH!"
Ask them "If the bill is $12.57 and the customer gives you $15.02, what change do your give the customer?" Those that graduated from that school system and could not answer correctly should pivot. They cannot be trusted with more money. The teachers cannot be trusted with more money and the students deserve an education where the lowest bar is below change making. It is a transaction skill all humans in a barely modern society need. Priority shift cost ZERO dollars.
New Math! I remember it well. They threw terms like “associative principle” at third graders. I think that might have been addition...at any rate, I was completely at sea. My engineer father said it was hogwash, and tried to teach me basic arithmetic but then I’d go to school and be faced with another term that didn’t make sense to me. So, I avoided math as much as possible and focused on English and history. The math instruction was so poor - this was in the mid-late 60s - that I never really grasped percentages until I was working a part-time job when I was 19 and had to calculate sales commissions. I wasn’t going to be a mathematician anyway no matter how good the instruction but my “education” really didn’t do me any favors in this area. I can’t have been the only student this happened to. Now that I’m thinking of it, the “less than” and “greater than” symbols < and > were explained so confusingly I didn’t know what on earth they wanted after the lesson. Figured this simple calculation out on my own. My parents should have gotten a refund on the property taxes they paid for the schools. By the way, I was in what was considered one of the best school districts in Minnesota.
Not only did they throw all that hogwash at the third graders, they threw it at the third grade teachers too. When one school district was implementing a major change in the Math curriculum, they scheduled a day-long teaching training session. That session was cancelled because of a hurricane and never recheduled. More hogwash..
I never thought of that but the teachers surely hated it too!
So good!! It feels encouraging to go from a drip to a trickle. Thank you for bringing your best everyday. A little encouragement goes a long way. Make it a great day!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣.. I’ve been around for a long time and never heard that one. OMG.
Jeff asks, "Honestly, who is taking boosters at this point?"
I'll tell you who...every commenter on the article the NYT ran the other day, recommending, of course, the covid booster AND the new RSV vaccine AND the flu shot. The article flat-out said that no one knows the long-term effects of the RSV vaccine, but that doctors would be looking for adverse reactions as the vaccine is rolled out to millions of people, or something like that. And many commenters mentioned that they've had 3 or 4 covid jabs and still got covid....but they're anxious to get jabbed again ASAP....to avoid getting sick again. We are living in madness. The horror! The horror!
Most of the jabbed are the “vote blue no matter who” crowd. Let them jab as many times as they want. For one, many won’t be reproducing. Also, the side effects just might come back to bite them come election time in 2024 or 2028. Jab away liberals!!
Just being sarcastic. Please don’t cancel me. 😎
If someone on the left is smart, they will come up with a plan where Democrats can show up to vote and get their covid jab at the same time! Win-win!!
😂🤣😂🎯🎯
Many fellow oldsters are lining up here. I’m sick of this. The utter ignorance. I don’t know how long I can hold my tongue. Sooner or later the ignorance will drive me away with a parting shot and I won’t care one way or another what happens to them. They have made their coffin with the finest satin, of course.
I learned long ago not to venture into the NYT, WaPo, or Guardian comment sections. The majority of commenters appear to share a similar demographic and a rabid belief in a specific value system. Like you, on the topic of Covid I found myself dismayed at the popular unquestioning acceptance of the narrative and the venom displayed against anyone who dare challenge their core beliefs. Sadly, I still believe that these people represent a significant number of people in our society. As you stated, these will be the people lining up for their Fall Covid/Flu/RSV shots.
Good. Jab em up quickly. Encourage them. 2 digit IQ get in line! Eugenics for the jabbed
If basic math can’t be done at the college level… a simple subtract 8 from -4…. Then it wasn’t the “pandemic” and two week (2 year) shutdown that is the problem. This problem is a complete failure of the education system in govt schools. My son learned how to do that basic math in grade school! If a college student can’t do THAT math then the lockdown when that student was in high school didn’t cause this problem. The inability to do basic math was already there. And the indoctrination system kept pushing that student upward and onward to complete failure heading into college. 🤦🏼♀️
The pandemic measure exacerbated the problems.
Exactly !!!
Apart from the great issues raised today and otherwise, here's something that crossed my desk this morning... worth a laugh as a dangerous example of rank self-delusion - maybe it can find some exposure in your World News and Commentary - maybe under politics? ! :
HARVARD T.H. CHAN SCHOOL OF PUBLIC HEALTH
Leadership Through Crisis: A Conversation With Former Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot
1 p.m. Thursday, online and in person.
This interview should be a fulfilling experience - certain there's lots to learn about leadership.
That's gonna be on the Nickelodeon Comedy Channel, right?
🤢🤮😵💫 I was feeling pretty good this morning until I read your comment and my cat just puked up a hairball...
The word “leadership” is not appropriate in describing Lori Lightfoot’s disastrous tenure. Unfortunately her successor is proving to be even worse. Way to go Chicagoans!
Note that when the left uses the word "conversation," they really mean "I'm going to tell you how it is, and you're going to listen."
🎯🤣🤣🤣🤣
Leadership Equity Through Crisis Equity
Good lord!
Is it taking questions?
That sounds like one of those "World's Shortest Book" jokes.
That could be very entertaining actually.
🧐🤔😅
"No two papers had the same answer! That’s a lot of guessing."
On the brighter side, there was no cheating.
I thought that too lol 😂
🤣
